Mr Romanus Ejikeme, the father of Mmesoma Ejikeme, the 2023 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) candidate who falsified her result, has publicly expressed his apology to Joint Admission Matriculation Board (JAMB) and Nigerians.

According to a video interview with the Nigerian Television Authority (NTA), he claims his daughter lied to him initially; now that he knows the truth, he wishes that JAMB could pardon his daughter.

Mr Ejikeme’s admitted to being in the wrong after Anambra State Government committee of inquiry set up to look into the controversy surrounding the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB) result found Mmesoma guilty of forging her result unaided, The Nigerian Tribune reported.

Mmesoma’s father admitted that he didn’t know where his daughter registered for the examination, but he gave her the money for the registration. He said: “My daughter did not open up to me on time; when I realised her mistake, I blamed her.

“I told her, Mmesoma, be careful; you know you are a star and will not dent your image. “But I am still apologising to JAMB and Nigerians as a father to pardon her.”
